he was educated in switzerland. had wide exposure to the west and then when he returned he has been much more public than his father ever was. so there was some optimism that perhaps kim jung un was not going to be a cookie cutter dictator type of his father kim jung ill but it was the missile test in december that was very provocative and, in fact, the first successful launch by the koreans to put an object in orbit and then this what everybody thinks is a nuclear underground test and by some estimations three to six times larger, more powerful than any previous test by the north koreans. all this proves apparently in some people's minds that un is going to follow his father's footsteps trying to make the north korean nation a super nuclear power that poses not only a threat to the region but perhaps the world. >> mick, thank you very much. >> reporter: you bet. >> the president adjusted the speech tonight to include a reference to north korea and a stern warning as it's been told to us that. >>> a senate committee

we know how important education is. we recognize that government alone cannot solve the problems of violence and poverty, that everybody has to be involved. but we also have to remember that the broader economic environment of communities is critical as well. for example, we need to make sure that folks who are working now, often in the hardest jobs, see their work rewarded with wages that allow them to raise a family without falling nool poverty. >> so president obama there in chicago using some very emotional and personal terms to make his pitch for new gun control measures. at one point saying too many of our children are being taken away from us. he repeated his call for a vote on gun control saying they deserve a vote. he used those words during the state of the union speech on tuesday and then talked about the importance of families and raising children in these neighborhoods that are prone to vie len. at one point he said, i wish i had a father who was around and involved. let's bring in our strategy session to t

look at education for example, you would have cuts to education, it could be by some estimates up to 70,000 kids could lose their head start positions, more than 14,000 teachers and staff could be laid off, it would affect criminal justice, border patrol, the security of the border, all fbi workers would have to be furloughed for up to 14 days. look at the parks, you would have the national park service reduced hours, reduced services, something would you certainly feel on your summer travel and travel, speaking of travel, what about longer wait times at airports, longer to get through tsa because of again furloughs, unpaid time off for folks simply because they don't have the budget anymore. you're talking about budget cuts for defense of 13% and for other agencies of 9%. it would certainly affect just about everything that you feel. what you see on that screen right there, carol, this is what senate democrats have proposed to replace the sequester. they've got more gradual defense cuts, they've got stopping direct payments to farmers, they'd like to tax the rich and end tax breaks
